Here are the key ratios calculated from the financial information provided: 1. Tangible Net Worth for 2005-06: Capital (300) + Reserves (140) - Goodwill (50) = 390 2. Current Ratio for 2006-07: Current Assets (170 + 30 + 170 + 20 + 240 + 190) / Current Liabilities (580 + 70 + 80 + 70) = 820/800 = 1.02 3. Debt Equity Ratio for 2005-06: Total Debt (Bank Term Loan 320 + Unsec. Long Term Loan 150) / Tangible Net Worth (390) = 470/390 = 1.2

1. RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio-analysis is a concept or technique
which is as old as accounting concept.
Financial analysis is a scientific tool. It has
assumed important role as a tool for
appraising the real worth of an enterprise, its
performance during a period of time and its
pit falls. Financial analysis is a vital apparatus
for the interpretation of financial statements. It
also helps to find out any cross-sectional and
time series linkages between various ratios.

2. RATIO ANALYSIS
Unlike in the past when security was considered to
be sufficient consideration for banks and financial
institutions to grant loans and advances, nowadays
the entire lending is need-based and the emphasis is
on the financial viability of a proposal and not only
on security alone. Further all business decision
contains an element of risk. The risk is more in the
case of decisions relating to credits. Ratio analysis
and other quantitative techniques facilitate
assessment of this risk.

3. RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio-analysis means the process of
computing, determining and presenting the
relationship of related items and groups of
items of the financial statements. They
provide in a summarized and concise form
of fairly good idea about the financial
position of a unit. They are important tools
for financial analysis.
3

4. Lenders’ need it for carrying out the
following
• Technical Appraisal
• Commercial Appraisal
• Financial Appraisal
• Economic Appraisal
• Management Appraisal
4

5. It’s a tool which enables the banker or lender to
arrive at the following factors :
• Liquidity position
• Profitability
• Solvency
• Financial Stability
• Quality of the Management
• Safety & Security of the loans & advances to
be or already been provided
5

6. Before looking at the ratios there are a number of cautionary
points concerning their use that need to be identified :
c.The dates and duration of the financial statements being
compared should be the same. If not, the effects of
seasonality may cause erroneous conclusions to be drawn.
e.The accounts to be compared should have been prepared
on the same bases. Different treatment of stocks or
depreciations or asset valuations will distort the results.
g.In order to judge the overall performance of the firm a group
of ratios, as opposed to just one or two should be used. In
order to identify trends at least three years of ratios are
normally required.
6

7. The utility of ratio analysis will get further
enhanced if following comparison is
possible.
3.Between the borrower and its competitor
4.Between the borrower and the best
enterprise in the industry
5.Between the borrower and the average
performance in the industry
6.Between the borrower and the global
average 7

8.  As Percentage - such as 25% or 50% . For
example if net profit is Rs.25,000/- and the sales
is Rs.1,00,000/- then the net profit can be said to
be 25% of the sales.
 As Proportion - The above figures may be
expressed in terms of the relationship between
net profit to sales as 1 : 4.
 As Pure Number /Times - The same can also
be expressed in an alternatively way such as the
sale is 4 times of the net profit or profit is 1/4th of
the sales.

Other Misc. assets which are not current or
fixed in nature
CURRENT LIABILTIES CURRENT ASSETS : Cash & Bank Balance,
Bank Working Capital Limits such as Marketable/quoted Govt. or other securities,
CC/OD/Bills/Export Credit Book Debts/Sundry Debtors, Bills Receivables,
Sundry /Trade Creditors/Creditors/Bills Stocks & inventory (RM,SIP,FG) Stores &
Payable, Short duration loans or deposits Spares, Advance Payment of Taxes, Prepaid
Expenses payable & provisions against various expenses, Loans and Advances recoverable
items within 12 months
INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Preliminary or Preoperative expenses

11. • Liabilities have Credit balance and Assets have Debit
balance
• Current Liabilities are those which have either become due
for payment or shall fall due for payment within 12 months
from the date of Balance Sheet
• Current Assets are those which undergo change in their
shape/form within 12 months. These are also called
Working Capital or Gross Working Capital
• Net Worth & Long Term Liabilities are also called Long
Term Sources of Funds
• Current Liabilities are known as Short Term Sources of
Funds
• Long Term Liabilities & Short Term Liabilities are also called
Outside Liabilities 11
• Current Assets are Short Term Use of Funds

12. • Assets other than Current Assets are Long Term Use of
Funds
• Installments of Term Loan Payable in 12 months are to be
taken as Current Liability only for Calculation of Current Ratio
& Quick Ratio.
• If there is profit it shall become part of Net Worth under the
head Reserves and if there is loss it will become part of
Intangible Assets
• Investments in Govt. Securities to be treated current only if
these are marketable and due. Investments in other
securities are to be treated Current if they are quoted.
Investments in allied/associate/sister units or firms to be
treated as Non-current.
• Bonus Shares as issued by capitalization of General reserves
and as such do not affect the Net Worth. With Rights Issue,
change takes place in Net Worth and Current Ratio. 12

13. Current Ratio : It is the relationship between the
current assets and current liabilities of a concern.
Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities
If the Current Assets and Current Liabilities of a concern
are Rs.4,00,000 and Rs.2,00,000 respectively, then the
Current Ratio will be : Rs.4,00,000/Rs.2,00,000 = 2 : 1
The ideal Current Ratio preferred by Banks is
1.33 : 1
 Net Working Capital : This is worked out as surplus of
Long Term Sources over Long Tern Uses, alternatively it
is the difference of Current Assets and Current
Liabilities.
13
NWC = Current Assets – Current Liabilities

14. Current Assets : Raw Material, Stores, Spares, Work-in Progress. Finished
Goods, Debtors, Bills Receivables, Cash.
Current Liabilities : Sundry Creditors, Installments of Term Loan, DPG etc.
payable within one year and other liabilities payable within one year.
This ratio must be at least 1.33 : 1 to ensure minimum margin of 25% of current
assets as margin from long term sources.
 Current Ratio measures short term liquidity of the concern and its ability to
meet its short term obligations within a time span of a year.
 It shows the liquidity position of the enterprise and its ability to meet current
obligations in time.
Higher ratio may be good from the point of view of creditors. In the long run very
high current ratio may affect profitability ( e.g. high inventory carrying cost)
 Shows the liquidity at a particular point of time. The position can change
immediately after that date. So trend of the current ratio over the years to be
analyzed.
 Current Ratio is to be studied with the changes of NWC. It is also necessary to
look at this ratio along with the Debt-Equity ratio.
14

15. 3. ACID TEST or QUICK RATIO : It is the ratio between Quick Current
Assets and Current Liabilities. The should be at least equal to 1.
Quick Current Assets : Cash/Bank Balances + Receivables upto 6 months +
Quickly realizable securities such as Govt. Securities or quickly marketable/quoted
shares and Bank Fixed Deposits
Acid Test or Quick Ratio = Quick Current Assets/Current Liabilities
Example :
Cash 50,000
Debtors 1,00,000
Inventories 1,50,000 Current Liabilities 1,00,000
Total Current Assets 3,00,000
Current Ratio = > 3,00,000/1,00,000 = 3:1
Quick Ratio => 1,50,000/1,00,000 = 1.5 : 1
15

16. • DEBT EQUITY RATIO : It is the relationship between
borrower’s fund (Debt) and Owner’s Capital (Equity).
Long Term Outside Liabilities / Tangible Net Worth
Liabilities of Long Term Nature
Total of Capital and Reserves & Surplus Less Intangible Assets
For instance, if the Firm is having the following :
Capital = Rs. 200 Lacs
Free Reserves & Surplus = Rs. 300 Lacs
Long Term Loans/Liabilities = Rs. 800 Lacs
Debt Equity Ratio will be => 800/500 i.e. 1.6 : 1
16

17. 5. PROPRIETARY RATIO : This ratio indicates the extent to which
Tangible Assets are financed by Owner’s Fund.
Proprietary Ratio = (Tangible Net Worth/Total Tangible
Assets) x 100
The ratio will be 100% when there is no Borrowing for
purchasing of Assets.
6. GROSS PROFIT RATIO : By comparing Gross Profit percentage to
Net Sales we can arrive at the Gross Profit Ratio which indicates the
manufacturing efficiency as well as the pricing policy of the concern.
Gross Profit Ratio = (Gross Profit / Net Sales ) x 100
Alternatively , since Gross Profit is equal to Sales minus Cost of
Goods Sold, it can also be interpreted as below :
Gross Profit Ratio = [ (Sales – Cost of goods sold)/ Net Sales]
x 100
A higher Gross Profit Ratio indicates efficiency in production of the unit. 17

18. 7. OPERATING PROFIT RATIO :
It is expressed as => (Operating Profit / Net Sales ) x 100
Higher the ratio indicates operational efficiency
8. NET PROFIT RATIO :
It is expressed as => ( Net Profit / Net Sales ) x 100
It measures overall profitability.
18

19. 9. STOCK/INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO :
(Average Inventory/Sales) x 365 for days
(Average Inventory/Sales) x 52 for weeks
(Average Inventory/Sales) x 12 for months
Average Inventory or Stocks = (Opening Stock + Closing
Stock)
-----------------------------------------
2
. This ratio indicates the number of times the inventory is
rotated during the relevant accounting period
19

20. 10. DEBTORS TURNOVER RATIO : This is also called Debtors
Velocity or Average Collection Period or Period of Credit given .
(Average Debtors/Sales ) x 365 for days
(52 for weeks & 12 for months)
11. ASSET TRUNOVER RATIO : Net Sales/Tangible Assets
12. FIXED ASSET TURNOVER RATIO : Net Sales /Fixed Assets
13. CURRENT ASSET TURNOVER RATIO : Net Sales / Current Assets
14. CREDITORS TURNOVER RATIO : This is also called Creditors
Velocity Ratio, which determines the creditor payment period.
(Average Creditors/Purchases)x365 for days
(52 for weeks & 12 for months)
20

21. 15. RETRUN ON ASSETS : Net Profit after Taxes/Total Assets
16. RETRUN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED :
( Net Profit before Interest & Tax / Average Capital Employed) x 100
Average Capital Employed is the average of the equity share
capital and long term funds provided by the owners and the
creditors of the firm at the beginning and end of the accounting
period.
21

22. Composite Ratio
17. RETRUN ON EQUITY CAPITAL (ROE) :
Net Profit after Taxes / Tangible Net Worth
• EARNING PER SHARE : EPS indicates the quantum of net profit
of the year that would be ranking for dividend for each share of
the company being held by the equity share holders.
Net profit after Taxes and Preference Dividend/ No. of Equity
Shares
19. PRICE EARNING RATIO : PE Ratio indicates the number of times
the Earning Per Share is covered by its market price.
Market Price Per Equity Share/Earning Per Share
22

23. 20. DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO : This ratio is one of the most
important one which indicates the ability of an enterprise to
meet its liabilities by way of payment of installments of Term
Loans and Interest thereon from out of the cash accruals and
forms the basis for fixation of the repayment schedule in
respect of the Term Loans raised for a project. (The Ideal DSCR
Ratio is considered to be 2 )
PAT + Depr. + Annual Interest on Long Term Loans &
Liabilities
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Annual interest on Long Term Loans & Liabilities + Annual
Installments payable on Long Term Loans & Liabilities
( Where PAT is Profit after Tax and Depr. is Depreciation)

A. What is the Debtors Velocity Ratio ? If the sales are Rs. 15 Lac.
Ans : ( Average Debtors / Net Sales) x 12 = (125 / 1500) x 12
= 1 month
Q. What is the Creditors Velocity Ratio if Purchases are Rs.10.5 Lac ?
Ans : (Average Creditors / Purchases ) x 12 = (26 / 1050) x 12 = 0.3 months
29

30. Exercise 5. : Profit to sales is 2% and amount of profit is say
Rs.5 Lac. Then What is the amount of Sales ?
Answer : Net Profit Ratio = (Net Profit / Sales ) x 100
2 = (5 x100) /Sales
Therefore Sales = 500/2 = Rs.250 Lac
Exercise 6. A Company has Net Worth of Rs.5 Lac, Term
Liabilities of Rs.10 Lac. Fixed Assets worth RS.16 Lac and
Current Assets are Rs.25 Lac. There is no intangible Assets
or other Non Current Assets. Calculate its Net Working
Capital.
Answer
Total Assets = 16 + 25 = Rs. 41 Lac
Total Liabilities = NW + LTL + CL = 5 + 10+ CL = 41 Lac
Current Liabilities = 41 – 15 = 26 Lac
Therefore Net Working Capital = C. A – C.L
= 25 – 26 = (- )1 Lac
30

31. Exercise 7 : Current Ratio of a concern is 1 : 1. What will be the Net
Working Capital ?
Answer : It suggest that the Current Assets is equal to Current Liabilities
hence the NWC would be NIL ( since NWC = C.A - C.L )
Exercise 8 : Suppose Current Ratio is 4 : 1. NWC is Rs.30,000/-. What
is the amount of Current Assets ?
Answer : 4a - 1a = 30,000
Therefore a = 10,000 i.e. Current Liabilities is Rs.10,000
Hence Current Assets would be 4a = 4 x 10,000 = Rs.40,000/-
Exercise 9. The amount of Term Loan installment is Rs.10000/ per
month, monthly average interest on TL is Rs.5000/-. If the amount
of Depreciation is Rs.30,000/- p.a. and PAT is Rs.2,70,000/-. What
would be the DSCR ?
DSCR = (PAT + Depr + Annual Intt.) / Annual Intt + Annual Installment
= (270000 + 30000 + 60000 ) / 60000 + 120000
31
= 360000 / 180000 = 2

32. Exercise 10 : Total Liabilities of a firm is Rs.100 Lac and Current Ratio
is 1.5 : 1. If Fixed Assets and Other Non Current Assets are to the tune
of Rs. 70 Lac and Debt Equity Ratio being 3 : 1. What would be the Long
Term Liabilities?
Ans : We can easily arrive at the amount of Current Asset being Rs. 30 Lac
i.e. ( Rs. 100 L - Rs. 70 L ). If the Current Ratio is 1.5 : 1, then Current
Liabilities works out to be Rs. 20 Lac. That means the aggregate of Net
Worth and Long Term Liabilities would be Rs. 80 Lacs. If the Debt Equity
Ratio is 3 : 1 then Debt works out to be Rs. 60 Lacs and equity Rs. 20 Lacs.
Therefore the Long Term Liabilities would be Rs.60 Lac.
Exercise 11 : Current Ratio is say 1.2 : 1 . Total of balance sheet being
Rs.22 Lac. The amount of Fixed Assets + Non Current Assets is Rs. 10
Lac. What would be the Current Liabilities?
Ans : When Total Assets is Rs.22 Lac then Current Assets would be 22 – 10
i.e Rs. 12 Lac. Thus we can easily arrive at the Current Liabilities figure
which should be Rs. 10 Lac
32
